Derby Cycling Group

The Derby Cycling Group works to promote cycling as an enjoyable, healthy, economical and environmentally friendly form of transport. Since its formation in 1979, it has campaigned to improve the conditions for cyclists in Derby and increase the role of cycling in the city's transportation system. It is a completely voluntary organisation which relies entirely on members' efforts for its success. Meetings are held every month throughout the year and all members are invited to attend.

Information on the LTP meeting (including the presentation and feedback form) can be found on the News pages of the website.

Urgently Needed - a volunteer to take on the role of membership secretary. The work isn't onerous and consists of keeping track of the existing membership and processing the annual renewals. Some computer ability (e.g. Excel) would be useful. If you think you could take on this role or want to understand more then please contact the Chair.

Next meeting: 19:30 Tuesday 03 August at The Brunswick Inn, Railway Terrace, Derby DE1 2RU (map)
